Santa's New Clothes - Book

Have you ever wondered what Santa does throughout the year, after the Christmas rush? Santa's New Clothes, a book by Al and Eadie Felly, follows Santa and his wife, Emily, on his year-round journey. This is a charming, rhyming story about the love that Santa and his wife share and the special project that Emily Claus undertakes to keep her Santa dressed in spectacular robes. Illustrated by Wisconsin artist, Tom Kelly, Santa's New Clothes is a great children's gift at Christmas or anytime of year.

Al and Eadie Felly are new authors, but long-time business owners in the Madison area. Al Felly, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, started Felly's Flowers in 1949, and his company grew into a successful floral business. They retired after over 40 years and settled in Mineral Point. Al began carving wood Santa's and gave great thought to how Santa dressed not only at Christmas, but throughout the year. The idea for the book, Santa's New Clothes, grew from there.
